BEATING OR WHISKING DEVICE.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N o. 742,77 3,

Application filed January 9,1903. Serial No. 13 8,367.

.a chimney or bottle cleaner.

It comprises a certain novel arrangement of a spiral and sliding agitator by means of which a rapid rotation is imparted to the beater or brush.

This specification is an exact description of one example of our inventiom'while the claims define the actual scope thereof.

Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.

Figure l is a perspective view of the invention embodied as an egg-beater. Fig. 2 is a detail perspective View of the lower portion of 'the frame of the egg-beater. Fig. 3 is a detail section of the upper portion of the frame. Fig. 4 is a side elevation of the lower portion thereof. Fig. 5 is a section on the line 7 7 of Fig. 4, and Fig. 6 is a side elevation of the beater.

The frame of the egg-beater comprises two parallel side portions a, joined together at their upper ends and having a bearing a and a finger loop or holder o?. At their lower ends the side portions of the frame are bent outward, as indicated at 0.3, and thence downward and upward, forming loops a4, joined by a cross-piece a5, in which is formed a socket or bearing a6.

b indicates the spiral, which is extended longitudinally in the frame and has its ends mounted, respectively, in the bearings a. and a6. This spiral carries the beater, which comprises av body o, fastened to the spiral, and downwardly-projecting winged ends c', which are adapted to turn through the loops a4. The wings'o' are slit, as shown, and the slit dated October 27, 1903.

(No model.)

portions turned in and out to eect a paddlelike action on the material with which the beater is used. The actuator comprises a handle portion dhaving two rings d', loosely embracing the spiral b.

In the use of the invention the frame is rested with its loops a4 on the bottom of the vessel in which the beater is placed, and then by holding the frame through the medium of the loop 0,2 and moving the actuator d up and down on the spiral b a rapid revolution of the spiral is effected, and since the beater o is attached to the spiral said beater follows the movements thereof.

Various changes in the form, proportions, and minor details of our invention may be resorted to at will without departing from the spirit and scope thereof. Hence we consider ourselves entitled to all such variations as may lie Within the intent of our claims.

Having thus described our invention, we claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. The combination of a frame, a spiral mounted to turn therein, abeating device fastened to the spiral, and an actuator comprising a handle portion and two rings respectively at the ends of the handle portions, each of said rings loosely embracing the spiral.

2. The combination of a frame having side portions and havingits lower end formed with two downwardly-extending loops connected at their inner sides by a cross-piece, a spiral mounted to turn in the frame, thelower end of the spiral being fitted loosely in the crosspiece, a beating device fastened to the spiral and having downwardly projecting wings movable through the said loops of the frame, and an actuator fitted on the spiral, for the purpose specified.

3. The combination of a frame having side portions and having its lower end -formed with two downwardly-extending loops connected at their inner sides by a cross-piece, a spiral mounted to turn in the frame,` the lower end of the spiral being fitted loosely in the crosspiece, a beating device fastened to the spiral and having downwardly-projecting `wings movable through the said loops of the frame, names to this specicationin the presence of and au actuator fitted on the spiral, for the two subscribing Witnesses.
